"Atlantis Mantino, or Atlanta for short, means ...... in sarin," Richard said, "the city of peace." ”

After a pause, Richard continued: "In Baltavin, the language of ancient wizarding civilization, Atlantis Mandino means the eternal city, the city of civilization, so it can be seen that ...... The native language of Sarin, similar to the rest of the languages, has some connection to the destroyed ancient wizarding civilization, which is interesting. ”

"Smack!"

With a bang, Richard closed a thick book and looked up.

He saw that there was a bright light all around, and he was standing in an almost boundless space, where countless energy cubes were suspended, all one meter in length, width and height. Many energy blocks are spliced together to form a large energy block that is ten meters long, ten meters wide, and ten meters high, including 1,000 energy blocks.

Based on such a large energy cube, there are nine other identical ones on three different three-dimensional axes of left and right, front and back, and up and down, at intervals of a certain distance, that is, there are a total of 1,000 such large energy cubes.

If it's a small energy block, it's a million.

A million of them.

It's Atlanta's Nativity Day at noon on June 6th, and he's inside Balta.

Richard glanced down at the book he had closed, the title of the book on the cover, "The Hollinster Hand".

This is one of the books obtained from the Royal Library of the Soma Alliance, which was used to decipher Baltavin.

To this day, he has studied hundreds of similar books, and after finishing reading this "Hollinster Codex", he has finally been able to decipher the vast majority of Baltavin.

This means that he can finally open the treasure of knowledge of Balta, and he can study the many written materials hidden in it, so as to understand the knowledge and secrets of the ancient wizarding civilization, and let himself analyze the current world principles more quickly.

In short, you can finally study well.

With a slight wave of Richard's hand, the Hollinster Handbook flew out and fell into an energy square not far away. Then with another wave of his hand, in that square, except for the book "Hollinster Handwriting" that was put in, a large pile of other books flew out and levitated around the body.

Richard's eyes fell on the surface of the book, and the book automatically turned the pages, showing the text, and instilling the content and knowledge into the brain.

Richard watched, read, absorbed, and couldn't help but smile on his face, it was a smile without any disguise, any disguise, any pretentiousness, at this moment Richard was completely engaged in the pursuit of knowledge, enjoying the fun of learning knowledge.

At this moment, Richard's mood was like that of a poor teenager who longed to read but couldn't, and after hard work, finally knocked on the door of the library and entered. At this moment, surrounded by countless books and in the ocean of knowledge, dizzy but happy.

In this way, Richard almost forgot the time, and stayed in Balta for a long time......

......

June 6th, late at night.

Atlanta City, in the heart of the city, on the street in front of an unoccupied complex.

Blood Princess Jasmine was wearing a crimson robe, pacing lightly, and for a moment she turned her head to look at the end of the street, and a figure walked towards her, it was Richard.

Seeing Richard appear, Jasmine first exhaled lightly and relaxed, and then frowned and said accountably: "Your Excellency Richard, today's performance is not very similar to your usual one." Haven't you always been very punctual, why are you late to meet me today?"

"A little thing was delayed. Richard explained briefly, walked closer, glanced at Jasmine, and said, "However, you can rest assured that this will not affect the content of our conversation today." ”

"That's good. Jasmine responded, blinking her eyes and saying, "Two months ago, I wanted to talk to you, but you rejected me, saying it was too early. Now that the new city has been built, the name of Atlantic Mandino has been inscribed, the residents have moved in, and your mansion and city hall have been moved from Blackwater, everything is in place, I don't think there's a reason for you to refuse anymore, right?"

"Not really. Richard said, "Let's talk about it." ”

With a straight face, Richard said: "There are some things, I don't say that you and I should also be clear: for example, you will come to help me and help me build Atlanta City, definitely not just want to be my subordinate, what you want more is to get a piece of development territory, so that you have a chance to regain the orthodoxy of the Sika royal family."

As for me, I have no interest in becoming a lord, manipulating power, dealing with trivial matters, etc., but I just want to use a territory to achieve some of my special purposes. In this respect, we can cooperate. ”

"How do you work together?" asked Jasmine as soon as Richard's words ended.

Richard smiled lightly, looked at Jasmine, and gave a two-word answer: "Ten years." ”

"Ten years?" Jasmine looked at Richard in confusion.

Richard didn't answer immediately, and as soon as he stepped on his feet, an invisible force was born, acting on the surrounding air, compressing and condensing the air, forming a diagonal upward staircase. Richard stepped on this step and ascended to a height of several tens of meters in the air, a height that could take in most of the area of Atlanta City, including the buildings next to it that were not yet occupied.

You can see that there is no one living next to the building complex, which covers a huge area. On the whole, it looks like a super-large mansion, with more than a dozen stone buildings, as well as small lakes, woods and other landscapes, and a lot of manpower and material resources are invested, which can be regarded as the No. 1 project in the process of building the city.

It's just that such a project is neither a lord's mansion, nor a city hall, nor an official department. After Richard asked for the construction to be built, he never announced its usefulness, which made countless people curious.

Jasmine leaped up with Richard, levitating to the same height as Richard. She glanced at the oversized mansion-like complex next to her, and wanted to ask Richard what exactly it was used for, but in the end, it was the question of "ten years" that made her more concerned.

Taking a deep breath, Jasmine spoke to Richard, "What do you mean by 'ten years'?"

"Ten years is a deadline. Richard explained, and as he spoke, he walked through the air towards the center of the complex. As he spoke, he walked through the details of the complex, as if he was very interested in the complex.

"In these ten years, I need you to serve Saline and me wholeheartedly. Richard walked over to the small lake of the complex and said to Jasmine, "I will tell you a series of requirements according to some of my conditions, and what you have to do is that it doesn't matter how you finish it, but the result must satisfy me." In a sense, I'm a planner, and you're the executor with the power of sarin, and you're responsible for implementing the various programs that I've made.

If you can do it, then I can guarantee that in ten years, it will give you a satisfactory development territory and give you more than half the chance of reclaiming the legitimacy of the Sika royal family, which is much better than your current illusory fantasy of no chance of winning. ”
